There's the excuse I know all my ardent fans that don't exist have been waiting for. In my time off I have gotten much better at drawing (not really), finished one book (Great Gatsby for school I haven't been able to finish any pleasure reading that isn't manga), and GOT AN I-POD. I have also had finals and well those were a living hell.
The worst was my English final in which I had to present a poem and song about a character from Great Gatsby. Guess what character my group got (drum roll please)...
GEORGE WILSON!!!
My horror at finding we had this character is almost to hard to express, it was also even worse that my part in the divide and conquer solution was the song and explaining why the song related to George, along with help the my friend Cinthia find quotes to help her relate to the song. Finding the song was easy, all I had to do was go "Mom! I need three to five songs that relate to Wilson from Great Gatsby, I know there's a Bruce Springsteen song somewhere in there."
Almost like a super computer mother said "THE RIVER, ATLANTIC CITY... and LITTLE LION MAN by MUMFORD AND SONS!"
I chose 'Little Lion Man' and happened to be the only person in my class with a song that had a curse word that sounded more like FAULK do to the singers thick accent. My group liked the song but did very little to help relate the song back to George, their main reason for choosing the song is 'because Bryar chose it.'
Overall the entire project was embarrassing and tiresome, but i went in front of the class with a horribly edited clean version and gave my reasons and would be quite happy to forget the entire experience.
Good morning, good evening and good night.
haha you spelled cinthyas name wrong i like the post tho about ur groups excuse why they didnt help relate the song back to george "bryar chose it" lmao
